Heartbreak. Poems - Poems about Heartbreak.

There was a time your name felt like a beginning— a gentle unfolding of everything soft in a world that had grown too loud. You weren’t just someone I loved. You were a season. A chapter where the pages turned slower just to make it last. We were never chaos, never fire. We were rain on windows, late-night playlists, hands brushing in silence. Almosts wrapped in always. Goodbyes hidden...

And you never knew— how many times I stood on the edge of your name, typing and erasing, drafting words that felt too fragile to send. I wrote the messages, but never set them free. My thumb hovered over "call" like a ghost remembering how to hold the living. Not because I didn't miss you— God, I did. But silence sometimes feels safer than a voice...

We’re not dating— but you heart-react to my stories like it’s a full-time job, send a “you up?” at 12:47 a.m. then disappear like my willpower at a shoe sale. You say you don’t do drama— but you’ve got more red flags than a Formula 1 race and the emotional depth of a spoon. You post gym selfies with deep quotes like “loyalty is...

Just a container for the child? Just someone who you can come home to? Like it or not she means more to me than that Had this ache only she can cure, had this fever she’d be able to control She was my strength, my stability, my will to keep going. Why’d I have to go and ruin it? Both didn’t...

"Echoes of Her" I miss her luscious lips, the way they’d part, Whispering love, then silencing my heart. Tantalizing kisses, like fire and wine, Left a burn on my soul — sweet and divine. The fragrance of her perfume haunts the air, Like ghosted memories tangled in despair. Each breath I take, it aches like a crime — A scent that holds me...

she was like a delicate daisy picked apart by her petals the wounds inflicted because she chose to settle what she thought was good made her colors fade a vibrant bright white turned brown then grey but as she disappeared into the ground she planted a seed that began to sprout a new growth was born a new chapter a new life her petals reborn into that...

Friend, you think you’ve fallen into the bowels of an endless abyss. Trust that it will not be infinitely dark and you will find a way to survive this. Live through every moment of your grief as you must. It will somehow make you stronger. This is a test you must complete: no instructions, no shortcuts, no quick fixes. You’re stronger than you...

For Aunt Carolyn, in memory of Uncle Dennis They were just teens outside a gift shop door, He said, "Come on, Darling, let’s go explore." With a wink and a grin, and her hand in his, They stepped into life, not knowing how rare love like this is. From navy bases to state lines they flew, Boxes unpacked and smiles that...

Clouds of smoke billowed over ruined buildings That once were homes safe and welcoming. Schools where children were learning, Hidden now from view by dust clouds billowing. Out of the dust men came with guns began to fire, Indiscriminate in who they killed mothers, fathers. Such a wailing of grief rose to the...

Shayari bunne waali zubaan, Ab formulas ratte hain. Kaagazon mein apna dil behlaane waale haath, Ab projects likhte hain. Jo dill azzad udd, kitaabe likhte the, Aaj wahi kitaabon ke bojh tale dabe hain. Jo abkhein sapne dekhna ko bane the, Ab raat raat undekhe sapnon ke liye jaagte hain. Jo pair duniyaa dekhne ko taraste the, Ab classes se tuitions tak ke chakkar...

Let’s give it one more go— Don’t let a good thing die so fast. Don’t let one moment bring us down; Together, we can beat the past. Let’s try again—maybe we’ll make it. But if we don’t, I promise you this: I won’t try to fake it. If you leave me now, I won’t last another hour. I can’t go on living If your sweet love...

Set me free to love again— You’re holding me much too tight. And if you won’t turn me loose, I think I’ll lose my mind. Because you don’t really love me, But you hold me anyway. You refuse to set me free— Just something that you own. I’ll try again later. Some other day, perhaps. Right now I’m much too tired, And don’t feel all that...

You don’t know what you do to me When your eyes meet mine that way. You light a spark, then turn and fade— And I’m alone with what I can't say. Broken hearted, I don’t know how To say the things I need to now. You don’t see what’s in my eyes— And I just don’t know why. The moment I saw you It...

Like ghosts in my pockets, weighing me down, burdens echoing with quiet sorrow, coiling tight around the soul in silent pain. Some weights like umbrellas cast aside after storms, others iron shackles, rusted, locked in permanence— all carried unseen, but deeply felt. Knots in the spine, scars engraved on the mind, tangled threads, riotous roots of clinging shadows— held tight, wrapped in sorrow...

All I want in this whole world is someone to love, Someone to hold, to cherish, to dream of. All I need is someone to comfort me— To stand by my side, to help set me free. Someone to talk to, to whisper things to, Someone, my dear… someone like you. Someone who'll love me, and I’ll love them back, Someone who’s...
